Across the state, access to affordable and reliable childcare remains an issue. Families are struggling to find care at a reasonable cost, and providers are struggling with workforce shortages, administrative burdens and challenges meeting the growing demand.
According to ChildCare Aware of America, center-based childcare in Indiana averages more than $17,000 annually for an infant and more than $16,000 for a toddler. Even lower-cost family childcare options can be upwards of $10,000 per year. For many households, these costs consume a significant portion of household budgets often exceeding the federal standard that considers care affordable when it accounts for no more than 7% of a family's income.
